If this were a French survey, I bet Jerry Lewis would be killing Homer right about now.....

Who gets y'all's (Southern contraction there tongue.gif )
vote?

George Washington gets mine smile.gif

[Garrett Lowell]

There are many who could fill this slot. My choice is Benjamin Franklin, for his many inventions and his wonderful writing.

If I've said it once, I've said it a million times......American's have their prioraties screwed up and most watch too much TV. While I'll admit Homer is cool, he's hardly the greatest American. :rolleyes: Besides, everybody knows "Zippy the Pin Head" is the greatest cartoon American. :D

Yosemite Sam is the greatest cartoon! "WHOA Camel!"

I figured you'd be backing Foghorn Leghorn being from the south and all. :D

George Washington.

And, as was said with respect to the first "America's Cup" race...

"Madam, there IS no second..."

But Hank Hill is "all American all the time" smile.gif

Nothing can really redeem television, but King of the Hill comes close.

I can't believe they didn't list Al Bundy! The poor guy gets no respect at all, four touchdowns in a single game for gosh sakes.
